Chord Mojo issue solutions thread.
In my opinion this unit shouldn't be described as portable, mine wasn't even used portably and I just own a paper weight now. **** this company.- TheTrace

Chord Mojo issue solutions thread.
How much did this end up costing you? If it's too pricy for me I'm considering selling mine for a discounted price to someone who's able to fix it themselves or has better connections than I do. I have those exact problems except my USB slot is also in a similar state.- TheTrace

Chord Mojo(1) DAC-amp ☆★►FAQ in 3rd post!◄★☆
It's not even just the batteries that they're doing this for. As I explained my issues with my Mojo a few pages back (both of my 3.5mm jacks on the Mojo no longer work) it would cost me $200 to repair that. My Mojo has been sent twice before this for it's USB slot no longer working, difference...- TheTrace

Opus Codec
I am too, but I don't feel that there's a reason to go above 192 on opus in my opinion. I haven't seen any tests for 224 or 256 for it though. I think it's commonly agreed upon that those bitrates are way too high.- TheTrace

Opus Codec
There's never a clear answer on that one. Apparently it's "pretty much" transparent at 128 and is transparent from 160 -192 kbps with the exception of some killer samples, according to this page: https://wiki.hydrogenaud.io/index.php?title=Opus Since even before the release of 1.3 (and after...- TheTrace

FLAC vs. 320 Mp3
True, but even that thread itself was last responded to more than a year ago. Maybe it's the compatibility issues still. Considering Android having a good share of the smartphone market today I would have thought that opus would have more of a lane by 2019 is all.- TheTrace

I'm sorry, the 3.5mm headphone jacks on the Mojo, edited initial post for the sake of accuracy.- TheTrace

FLAC vs. 320 Mp3
How come no one talks about opus? I convert everything from FLAC to opus 192 kbps. Never have a problem. Used to have AAC 256 before I changed to Android- TheTrace

To be honest, I'm with you when it comes to those repair fees on the Mojo. Both of my 3.5mm headphone inputs no longer work on my Mojo, instead of sound I get an uncomfortable high pitch frequency. I was told that it would be around $100 an hour for labor and parts since I was just outside my...- TheTrace

Yes the battery is fine, the problem is the physical 3.5mm jacks .- TheTrace

Chord Mojo(1) DAC-amp ☆★►FAQ in 3rd post!◄★☆
Haven't posted here in so long, or used my Mojo as a matter of fact. I'd like to actually start using it again but I have the same issues with the 3.5mm jacks as I did before. When plugged into any source, both of the audio jacks no longer work. It emits a high pitch ear piercing frequency at...- TheTrace

Chord Mojo(1) DAC-amp ☆★►FAQ in 3rd post!◄★☆
Over time my Mojo's 3.5mm jacks have gone from bad to unusable. I would constantly have to adjust the headphone jack in order to get sound instead of a mufled and distorted feedback in the past. Now I just get an ear piercing frequency or buzzing whenever I plug anything into the Mojo when it's...- TheTrace
